Alex Trebek is a total asshole.

I went to Target and the little coupons I got were for a smoothie blender and a Sonicare!! It's the first time in, like, 5 years that I haven't gotten coupons for Pull-Ups and other baby products. I feel like a normal human being.

[bonquiqui]

Im injured AGAIN and im feeling down about it.

I am pumped that the Cubs are on tv tonight. Woot!

[panicked]

I had to take a math test for a job I'm applying for. I haven't taken a math test in 10 years. My brain hurts.

We're spending the evening at the go-kart place. It's almost pleasant here on a Monday night without the swarms of people that are here when we've come in the past.

[killercupcake]

Another job I applied for filled.

Administrators are supposed to be on vacation in July. Clearly they are not and they still aren't calling me. This is so fucking discouraging.

[sallywalker]

I have eaten horribly today. I had McDonald's mcgriddle for breakfast. Then I went to whataburger and had a double cheeseburger for lunch. Now I ordered pizza for dinner.

I've won two small giveaways online today. One on Reddit, one on Instagram. There's a larger one I was hoping for, but 3 in one week would be way too good to be true.

[killercupcake]

I just tweeted at a local news station to correct their grammar. They've got a commercial running in which a little girl says "I couldn't breathe." They've added text to her footage that says "I couldn't breath."

No guys, it's "breathe," not "breath." I don't know who they have in charge of these things, but they must've barely passed 9th grade English because it happens all the time lately.

I have no idea why this is making me laugh, but it is. DS gave me a really weird look.

I am laying in bed watching Shark Week stuff on TV.

I did all of the laundry and got it all out away. Yay me!

[nursewife]

I won a pair of Nike running shoes from a website that looks legit. They have 400k FB likes and seem like a reputable business that hasn't asked for anything shady. Why am I so worried they are fraudulent?!

What did you win? How do you find them to enter?

Today is my oldest Carter's 6th birthday. I made him his favorite dinner and bought him cupcakes. He has already made 2 friends in the neighborhood that just turned 6 this last month so he is playing with them outside now.

I love love love our new neighborhood. It already feels like home even though we have only been in it a week. Loving PA weather more than TX right now!

[kirra]

I'm so happy I have a temp job. It's not long term, and funding means it can't be, but I feel normal again. I'm just happy to be working.

Nothing major. After the two today, that makes 3 I've won in the past two weeks. They are all e-cig juices so far.  Since H won't give me any money to buy stuff with aside from "necessities" to quit smoking, I've been addictively entering contests.

I did win a vibrator on a private facebook group about a month and a half ago. It was from one of those home party things. I had purchased from it before and hated it, but figured if I won I'd give it another shot. 


ETA: I found the one on reddit just on a forum I've been frequenting, and there are a bit on Instagram if you follow companies.

BIL was being shitty to H again tonight and H stood up to him and put him in his place. BIL was sputtering and floundering and didn't know what to say lol. 

(Lots of backstory that you may have missed, but it has been an ongoing issue and I am proud of H for finally standing up for himself).

I had a good workout (mile on treadmill and 30 day shred) but now I feel like I could puke. I guess that means it's working? lol I need to do some type of exercise five or six days a week - bro's wedding is on the 24th and I was sooooooo not happy with the pic of me trying on my dress.

It was super hazy and stinky when I left work this afternoon, it's hard to believe it's all the way from Canada.

I live in downtown, so not too far! About 15 minutes. I'd love to hang out

No rain to wash the piss away.

So now that I'm up all night nursing my little nocturnal babe, I needed a Netflix show to binge watch.

After reading so much about it on here, I went with FNL. I was sure I wouldn't like it/would think it was terribly cheesy.
Nope. I'm obsessed.

The Hopping Pig and Knotty Barrel were two of our favorites down there.

I thought about that. And in NYC we are super water wasteful and business owners power wash their front sidewalks almost every day. No water wasting here. No sidewalk blasting.

Lol. We've made friends with the owners of Knotty. That's where we usually go for beers. 
Haven't been to Hopping Pig yet!

We had a good friend come over tonight and tried to sell us on prim.er.ica insurance. Not cool homie.

I'm doing the Nektar juice cleanse in a couple of weeks and I'm nervous about it! I've never done one before.

My sister is a serious bridezilla and its annoying AF!

My five year old has to make an invention for summer camp. Bwahaha! Help!
